CVE-2025-20029 is a command injection vulnerability found in F5's BIG-IP, specifically impacting iControl REST and the TMOS Shell (tmsh). This vulnerability allows authenticated attackers, possessing even low-level privileges, to execute arbitrary system commands by sending specially crafted requests through iControl REST remotely or via crafted tmsh commands locally. Successful exploitation could enable attackers to create or delete files, and potentially escalate privileges to root. This vulnerability is a control plane issue and does not expose the data plane. Affected BIG-IP versions include 15.1.0 through 15.1.10, 16.1.0 through 16.1.5, and 17.1.0 through 17.1.2. F5 has addressed this vulnerability and recommends upgrading to versions 15.1.10.6, 16.1.5.2, 17.1.2.1, or later. This vulnerability has been classified as CWE-78: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection'). As of today, February 24, 2025, there are no reports of this vulnerability being actively exploited in the wild. However, given the potential impact, it is crucial to apply the necessary updates as soon as possible.

Description
